How did they get there? Who's excluded? Why? If the contractor prefers your brand is there a way he can include it in his database? Where does he get his catalog information? Spec sheets? What about pricing? How does he prefer to get it? From who? How important is pricing anyway? These are just some of the questions that need be answered if you want to believe that you truly know your customer and how to position your products. To that end ElectricSmarts has done webinars and conducted meetings for partners throughout the channel because they understand that if they don't know the answer to these questions, they don't truly know how to position their products with their customers.

Dukart From shale oil plays in North Dakota to live concerts in Miami or San Diego, the need for portable, temporary power has never been greater.
